Frenuloplasty!

hi folks, i'm having a frenuloplasty sometime soon, hospital hasn't set a date yet!
I was just wondering if anyone on here has had one or knows someone who's had one? if you do, could you either write about it, or PM me, i'd really like to know what's it's actually like, because i'm really worried about it... simple things, like what's the best style of underwear to wear afterwards? do you have to shave your pubes before the operation? how long is it before you can have sex or masturbate again?

Thanks for your help guys...
Tom :smile:

ok, read said link, understand now. My bf didnt get the option of one of those, just straight to the circumcision

I think you'll be told to wait 3 months its similar to circumsition so. Erm, the under question is difficult. some would say lose because its not directly rubbing, but then you must kinda "bounce" and rub anyway. Some would say tight to restrict movement! You'll be keeping it kept in a bandage most likely to begin with (not certain) so just see what feels right after that

it's not too personal at all... being that i don't know you, i don't find it difficult to talk to you!

presumably you know now anyway! I think i'd prefer this option and then have the possibility to move on to the circumcision, but i have that first, i'd never have known if the more simple procedure would have sufficed, you know?!

Ye, true! Having never been with somone with a foreskin its kinda convenient it not being there! though the obvious draw back being he's now harder to please! GRR

i hope it's not really that long!! dear god!...

i've been advised to wear briefs for the first week and then loose boxers after that!... but not really sure about pubic shaving, dnt know if i should do it, or leave it for a nurse to do! :redface: :confused:

You dont know he wont you arent his doctor! In some cases its the only viable option! If stretching doesnt work what's he meant to do? have painful sex! Better the circumcision my boy!

And as for the three weeks! I used to laugh and say my bf wouldnt get through it, he survived ok! LOL

Reply 16

my gf keeps telling me i won't get through it! lol

Well, the point of frenuloplasty is to make the foreskin normally retractable

it does, so you shouldn't need circumcision as well, otherwise they'd just do that in the first place

It doesnt always work! Be prepared for the possibility! And trust me, you'll get through it just to spite your gf!
